When Mu Yuchen said this, Su Chen raised his brows with interest

“What? Do you plan to make a move yourself and look for this Qin Su or Zimo to hint them?”

Su Chen was a little puzzled by Mu Yuchen’s reaction. It seemed like he already had a plan.

“Curiosity can kill a cat. Just do what you have to do. Zimo’s mood hasn’t been very stable recently, so you do what you have to do. If you have time, go out with him and get him to relax. I even got a call from him complaining about you while I’m here.”

“This guy is just making a fuss about nothing. Alright, since you know the situation, that’s enough. I’ll leave the rest to you. I don’t care anymore, let me know if anything. When are you getting back?”

“It’ll take a while. Things here aren’t very optimistic. Otherwise, Qi Lei wouldn’t have been called over.”

Mu Yuchen could not help but rub his forehead as he spoke. Qi Lei had already flipped open the documents in his hands and continued to look down, browsing through them. His long eyelashes fluttered as he was very focused.

“I won’t get involved in your business matters, you can do as you see fit. If there’s anything you need, just let me know. I’ll treat you guys to a meal when I’m back since it seems like you’ve been thinking about this meal for quite a while now.”

“I’ll remember.” Mu Yuchen chuckled and then hung up.

“Su Chen called?”

When Mu Yuchen hung up, Qi Lei asked nonchalantly, his gaze did not leave the document in front of him. He did not even look up.

Mu Yuchen sipped his tea leisurely

“Mmm, Zimo’s been quite worried recently.”

“Zimo?”

When Qi Lei heard this, he looked up at him suspiciously. He thought about it and seemed to have caught the answer. “Are you thinking about how to find him a partner?”

Mu Yuchen glanced at him, “What else? Before this, he thought that you were in the same situation as him. Until now, the two of them still don’t know about your marriage, but now, he really is the only one left. We’re buddies, no matter it was, all these years, no one has left anyone behind. Even in this matter, we should put some thought into it.”

Qi Lei’s handsome brows raised as a smile flashed across his lips. He reached out to take a cigarette packet from the side and took one out himself. He lit it leisurely and blew out a mouthful of smoke before passing the cigarette packet to Mu Yuchen.

Mu Yuchen took it and also took a cigarette to light it up.

“It’s you guys that make me understand what sincere brotherhood looks like. Sometimes, I really envy you guys. No matter what happens, you stick to your beliefs.”

As Qi Lei said this, he puffed on his cigarette leisurely and flicked the ash between his fingers.

“I admire you too. If I were in your position back then, I might not be as persistent as you. Compared to the consideration of gains and losses, I admit that I’m not as open-minded as you. At least, I’ve been disappointed by my own efforts before.”

Mu Yuchen did not try to hide it at all.

Qi Lei paused for a moment when he heard that. He pondered it with some thought before turning to look at him, “Actually with Lingtian… everyone has a scale in their hearts, it depends on how you use it to measure things. It’s the same for brothers and friends. He very much cared about you as his older brother. As long as you know that, that’s enough.”

“So, you don’t actually hate Qi Feng that much, right? Even if he was the mastermind that caused you to lose your mother.”

When Mu Yuchen heard this, he suddenly asked him the same question.

Qi Lei was stunned. He took two puffs of smoke in a row, and the smoke that filled the air was quickly blown away by the night breeze—

“I can’t say that I don’t hate him, but these feelings suddenly began to dissipate the moment he fall.”

Qi lei sighed, “You might not be able to blame Lingtian. I’m the same with Qi Feng. From the day we became sensible, we had an unbreakable connection. This is fate.”

“Compared to you, I’m a little luckier.”

“I don’t care if I’m lucky or not anymore. We can’t be handing our fate to the heavens, we need to fight for many things ourselves.” Qi Lei flicked the cigarette ash between his fingers and replied.

“To have such a realization, you’ve really impressed me. Are you looking forward to your life in the future? It seems like you and Ms. Dongfang are getting along quite well. At least, looking at you now, you seem to be leading a happy life.”

Qi Lei did not answer. Instead, he smiled.

“Aren’t you and Xi Xiaye the same? I also seek a peaceful life.”

“However, the Dongfang Group won’t let you live a peaceful life. Dongfang Liuyun’s status isn’t ordinary to begin with, even I would consider before getting myself associated with such trouble.”

Mu Yuchen thought about it for a moment before saying this.

Qi Lei glanced at him disapprovingly, “Didn’t you marry Xi Xiaye back then without second thoughts? That depends on who it is too, since I was able to make up my mind to marry her back then, I won’t think too much about it. Do you think there’s anything I can’t afford to lose right now?”

When he said this, Qi Li coughed lightly and frowned. He put out the cigarette between his fingers—

“I want to bet on her. I bet that she’ll fall in love with me and stay by my side forever.”

When he said this, Mu Yuchen could see that Qi Lei’s silent black eyes were shining faintly, and his tone was filled with determination.

After some thought, Mu Yuchen asked, “Do you like her?”

“I don’t know. At least, I admit that when I’m with her, I feel an unprecedented sense of security. This sense of security makes me feel very calm. It makes me feel like I’m not alone. It’s very strange. I don’t know why I have such confidence in her. She’s stronger than me, but she’s actually very fragile too, only that she never lets anyone know.”

Qi Lei said this very calmly. He paused for a moment before continuing, “I’ve said before that she’s the first woman who made me think about getting married. Of course, she’ll be the last. I actually don’t have much hope in life. If she’s willing, I’m willing to give her anything.”

“I couldn’t tell that you were such a romantic.”

Mu Yuchen glanced at him and chuckled, but he knew this feeling very well—

Was he not the same with Xi Xiaye?

“Romantic is too serious of a word. I’m just doing my duty as a husband. No matter who I’ve wronged, I can’t wrong my own woman. This is something I’ve made up my mind about ever since the day I became sensible.”

Mu Yuchen nodded and suddenly understood. Actually, Qi Qiming and Wang Qin’s incident had a huge impact on Qi Lei, and he was a little glad that they had a positive influence and not…
